I’m not sure when it happened, but somehow over time my posture started to become a real problem. My husband would try to correct it and tell me I needed to stand up straighter or I was going to get that “grandma hunch”. I shrugged him off and kept continuing forward with my bad posture until one day when I looked in the mirror and it just hit me.

There are some things I can’t imagine not having around the holidays. One of these items might surprise some, but I can’t imagine the holidays without my Echo dot and Alexa. This holiday season we added even more magic to our house with the Echo Dot Kids Edition. What an awesome device! I knew when I read about it that it would be pretty cool, but I had no idea how much fun it would add to our home and how much it would ignite a spark in our kids. I think by now everyone knows that you can ask Alexa questions, but this usefulness is multiplied by 10 when you have kids.

I am so excited to share with you the Mamas Spot 2018 Holiday Gift Guide! I love giving unique gifts that make a lasting impression and I wanted to create a gift guide this year that will help you to do the same! We all want to give something truly unique and thoughtful, but it can be hard to actually nail down these items when presented with so many gift options during the holidays. That’s why I am here today to help make your shopping a little easier and stress free.

All of the gifts in this guide were carefully curated with YOU (A Mamas Spot reader) in mind! I hope you will be inspired by this guide and it will help to free up your time to do the things that really matter this holiday season and spend time with the ones you love.

We all know that LEGOLAND is pretty awesome, but do you know how many locations there are? Did you know there is a LEGOLAND Park and Resort in Malaysia? And I can say from personal experience LEGOLAND Malaysia a pretty amazing. We have visited many times now and yet it always has new fun in store for us and I’m always surprised how different every visit is.

I hear all the time from friends, family and readers how they would love to visit a particular destination if only they knew the language a little better or at all. How often do we find ourselves intimidated by other languages? It should never hold us back though from exploring amazing new places! Learning key phrases and words or even becoming completely fluent is easier than ever with Rosetta Stone.
